LaCorte News ^ | 8/13/2020 | Penka Arsova

The mainstream media is being called out for skipping the murder of the 5-year-old Cannon Hinnant that took place over the weekend.

The story: On Sunday, 25-year-old Darius Sessoms, who is black, reportedly walked up to Cannon Hinnant, who is white, and shot him in the head at point-blank. At the time, Hinnant was in the front yard of his family’s house, riding his bike. His two sisters, ages seven and eight, were also there and saw the shooting, according to witnesses.

Sessoms left the scene and was arrested Monday. He has been charged with first-degree murder and is being held without bond at the Wilson County jail. According to Daniel Horowitz of Conservative Review Sessoms had several felony convictions on his record.

This story is a disgrace. My son, who follows the news on a regular basis {not like a FReeper} never heard about this murder and he watches FNC.

This has basically been totally hidden from most of the public.

It makes me furious.

It is likely that the BLM crowd will say the name of the murderer...after all, he was probably triggered by the boy’s white privilege. The boy, at the age of 5, had a bicycle, while he (the murderer) never knew what that was like.

Why is this animal named sessoms still alive?

Why did he live to see another sunset?

Why are the decent people of Wilson, North Carolina not rooting and demanding the head of this animal and his death immediately?

Are there any decent people in Wilson, North Carolina?

The police have arrested suspect Darius N. Sessoms. The 25-year-old was charged with first-degree murder with no bond, WRAL reports.

Facebook won’t let me post it, either by direct link or copy-paste. Says content is “objectionable”.

Bret Baier covered it in passing last night - literally only seconds.
Did not explain that it was an assassination.

I Googled Cannon Hinnant and found news stories from ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, MSNBC, FOX, papers in New York, papers in the UK, People magazine, Newsweek magazine, local news, national news, international news. What news coverage do people think is missing?

Then Fox News is just as much the enemy as CNN.

Nobody has offered a motive. All we know is the two families knew each other and had socialized together.

“Why are the decent people of Wilson, North Carolina not rooting and demanding the head of this animal and his death immediately?”

Because decent people don’t instantly form lynch mobs when the justice system is still at least generally functional.

In this instance the reason is not needed.
Did he shoot him? Yes. Murder in the first degree.
Hang him.
